How often should the lamps (bulbs) be changed?
Metal Halide Fixtures should be re-lamped every 5000 hours. Depending upon your hours of operation, this may not be in your budget. Plan to at least re-lamp every other fixture every year to keep foot candle levels at an acceptable level. Cleaning and re-lamping the fixture together will save time and money.
